Copy a YouTube Transcript Instantly
Grab the full transcript of any YouTube video and copy it with a single click. Choose to keep timestamps for reference or copy clean prose for writing and notes.
LinkTranscript formats the text so it pastes cleanly into Google Docs, Notion, email, or anywhere else — no stray line breaks or duplicated spaces.
Two copy modes
Copy with timestamps when you need to cite specific moments, or copy clean text when you just want the words. A per-line copy button also lets you lift a single quote without grabbing the whole transcript.
Paste-ready formatting
Whitespace is collapsed, lines are tidy, and the structure survives the paste. What you copy is what you get in your document.
No account, no friction
There is no login wall between you and the copy button. Paste a link, copy the text, move on.
